This crane is set to grow. Tower sections have been onsite for a few weeks but now have been tilted upright and a jacking frame has been installed on the mast.

I don't know if the picture above is what I saw today, but I was going down Wright Ave in Burnside from it's highest point heading towards Windmill Rd this afternoon looking into the setting sun, and was struck by what appeared to be a very large building and crane going up somewhere on top of the hill on the opposite side of the harbour. Its silhouette was very dramatic.

^It's this project. Driving down the long slope that is older Burnside has quite a stunning view of the stretch between Larry Uteck and Clayton Park West. This one sticks out so much because it's the tallest and at the crest of the hill so it's even taller. Similar to how Richmond Yards is more visible than Vuze or One 77 because it is at the top of the peninsula.

IMO the best angle of MZM Tower is from driving MacKay Bridge Halifax-bound. I make sure to get a nice glance when I can on my commute home.

Noticed the crane being disassembled here today. Moving on to the next project I presume.

MZM TOWER (75 Wentworth Drive) is now complete.

Great pic!

Intriguing design - would the vertical section outlined in yellow be the location of the elevator shaft?

I visited the site for 75 Wentworth now that they are trying to rent it. It doesn’t have much info but does offer up floor plans for what I think are 10 or 11 different types of units. They call 7 or 8 of the variations “1 bedroom“ units with the remainder being 2 bedrooms. Oddly, none of the 1 bedrooms shows an actual bedroom, all being what used to be termed bachelor or studio apartments. They seemed mostly in the 700 sq ft range. The plan views didn’t show any obvious place for a bed. I didn’t see any indication of the asking prices.

Perhaps they've updated the site now... https://www.themzm.ca/
Studios are listed as types A, B, and H; One Bedrooms as types C, D, E, and J; Two Bedrooms as F, I, and K; and the Penthouse as Type L (looks like it has three).

That is different from the site I visited, though the studio and 1-bedroom plans look similar. I saw no indication of 2-bedroom units at all on the site I found, so something must have been updated.

The promotional wording on the site is pretty grandiose for what this building is... a "gift" to the city of Halifax? lol
